Hey hey!! In order to finish the tournament by the end of the month, voting is open now until midnight MST! I will watch both winners of these two matchups, but we will vote on the final to see which I watch first. I have loved seeing the comments, discussion and passion for these movies and can’t wait to see what wins. Thank you to those who made some suggestions how we could tweak it a bit next time.

Should we do another bracket for another genre?

Thanks so much!

Terminator and Blade Runner for the Finals. Either are great choices in my opinion.

Off topic, but I noticed none of the people I am subscribed to for movie reactions has done a full reaction for "The Exorcist". It's as-if the first one who does the reaction will become a pioneer in my circles, a legend among peers.I mean, yeah, it's downright scary, but it's one of those movies that you appreciate after the movie is over.

Robert Holmes

No way she needs to see The Exorcist thou I understand your point

David Lengyel

I can recommend a couple of channels if you're interested in this particular movie. Cassie is working her way up for this one, so it might take some time.

Dirk Rheeder

Even though Close Encounters lost, I still highly recommend you put it on the list of things to watch. I believe this is definitely your kind of movie, or at least one you would enjoy. Once Terminator wins, which it will inevitably do, please try to watch Terminator 2. It achieved one of the most difficult feats, in which the squeal was better than the original. Very few franchises pull this off. But then stop, the rest don't exist!

Ehh, not a huge Blade Runner fan, I figured it would give Predator a problem getting to the finals. Almost called it with that and Terminator, still surprised Total Recall didn’t make the contest.

Now that it is between Terminator and Blade Runner. It will be time to watch T2 and especially Blade Runner 2049.

For the Drama genre, I recommend.. - The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

Looks like Terminator is going to get the win. I thought for sure Bladerunner would walk away with it. You'll probably like Terminator more than Bladerunner anyway. It's faster paced and is a lot easier to follow. Bladerunner can kind of drag.

Blade Runner is slower for sure. More art than thrill maybe. Hopefully she's intrigued enough for the sequel which in many ways is superior.

"Minority Report" surpasses most of the sci-fi in this contest-- in story, direction, pace, and acting in my opinion. Yet it didn't make it passed the first round? In fact "Blade Runner" and "Minority Report" are based on stories by the same author! *Hands covering face dramatically* Whyyyyyyy?! 😭 Too many great movie casualties. 😔

Menno

Terminator? She's gonna hate that movie.

Damien beatty

She said she is not ready for it, not that she would never see it. Two different things, she said maybe wait until she is more used to the horror genre. Plus she is trying to open her eyes to the classics. I am willing to wait until she is more comfortable , but is he never watches it, and I do not know if you have ever seen it, it will be a shame! It is actually much deeper than most people give it credit for, it is actually great. Is it Scary? Yes! Is it more, absolutely. One of the best movie critics out there Mark Kermode calls it the best movie ever made! I disagree with that, but it is amazing.

So many classic movie casualties in this poll tournament. At 10 movies that didn't get past the 2nd round that are my favs.

KevG

I think CAssie will surprise you. She liked "Snatch". So when Cassie gets it, she gets it for sure. I think she will like Terminator. Especially Terminator 2

Catherine LW

It has a poignant love story so I think she will like it. Plus the plot line is very good.

KevG

I mean. I think John Wick is cool, But it's a bit of vilonce porn. It's a kill a minute. Terminator is way less killing. I think Terminator falls into the Jurassic Park camp. It's more suspenseful. We'll see how she reacts. Anyway, it's always fun to watch react.

Catherine LW

@Damien, I saw the cleaned up tv version of The Exorcist when I was in high school and it scared the life out of me. I remember not being able to sleep because I was so terrified. And that was the edited for tv version!

Damien beatty

I waited until I was 35 to watch it because of what I had heard about it , and I actually regret not seeing it sooner. I love the themes, the acting ( I mean it has the absolutely fantastic Max Von Sydow in it) all around , especially Linda Blair. Great soundtrack " Tubular Bells" in completion is wonderful. It is truly a Great movie, and Horrifying!

Maynard, don't put any money on that ha ha ha Like Catherine said it has a love story element, a brief element. let's just say Kyle Rese completed his assignment.
